The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A methodical, procedurally generated strategy game that demands adaptive economic and technological planning against AI or human opponents on a hex grid.

What players say

Players praise the mix of RTS with a battle royale-style shrinking map, calling it strategic and quick with matches under 40 minutes. However, reviews after 2020 report a dead PvP population and no single-player content beyond bots, with some calling the development abandoned.
